this is maybe worth elaborating on b/c i think it responds to one of people's main criticisms about the feelings stuff i'm into you descend into the underworld but it's not in order to hang out there forever. it's to find a gift and then *bring it back to your people*

oh this is so interesting to hear from you. i'm thinking about shadow integration as like the descent into the underworld part of the hero's journey. it could be part of your "funnel" but not the whole thing?

this also gets at something i've struggled to articulate about what it is i think i and the people i feel most similar to are trying to do here on twitter. we're not here to make friends or get cozy, not exactly. frankly we're here to die and be reborn

i don't mean for this to sound cool or edgy it's intended as an observation about what it seems to me we're *already* doing. as far as i know basically nobody chooses this and we're doing it because we feel like we have no choice arcove.substack.com/p/null-call
